Dying Breed (2008)

Four friends delve deep into the forests of Tasmania in search of a creature that was thought to be extinct, but what they find is a new breed of terror entirely... Director Jody Dwyer packs a great deal of shock and suspense into DYING BREED, a survivalist horror film from Down Under. The keen editing and sound design help to heighten the impact and exhilarating rush of adrenaline during these moments for a terrifying overall effect. Let alone the gore, there are several cringe-worthy scenes that will have audience members reeling in their seats. Leigh Whannel leads a solid cast, and outside of a few questionable decisions, the characters act with intelligence and a survival instinct. What DYING BREED lacks in originality, it makes up for in thrills to prove itself a worthwhile entry in to the survivalist horror genre.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
